U.S. imports of unwrought nickel alloys (HS 750220) totaled $12.1M in May 2026, traded with 12 countries.
Importers of Unwrought Nickel Alloys paid $2K in duties in May 2026 โ an effective duty rate of 3.7% on $64K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Unwrought Nickel Alloys imports of $12.1M in May 2026 ran 30% above the year-to-date monthly average of $9.3M.
Last updated: May 2026 dataUnwrought nickel alloys โ including Monel, Inconel, Hastelloy, and other engineered compositions in cast, ingot, or similar unworked form โ serve as primary inputs for aerospace, chemical processing, and power-generation components requiring high-temperature or corrosion-resistant performance. All US imports enter under tariff line 7502200000, and the heading's scope requires that the alloy not yet have been worked into a wrought form such as bar, rod, or sheet. The United Kingdom and Belgium are the leading suppliers, reflecting Europe's concentration of specialty nickel alloy producers. Importers should ensure that the alloy composition is documented by certified mill test report, as the specific alloying system (e.g., nickel-copper vs. nickel-chromium-iron) may affect downstream classification of any further-processed forms.

Classification depends on the predominant metal by weight. If nickel is the largest single constituent by weight, the product generally falls within Chapter 75 as an unwrought nickel alloy. If another metal (e.g., chromium or iron) predominates, it may classify elsewhere. A certified chemical analysis showing elemental composition by weight percentage is essential to support the correct heading determination.
Unwrought alloy has not been subjected to rolling, drawing, extrusion, or other working operations that give it a definite cross-sectional shape. Once the material is worked into bars, rods, or profiles, it reclassifies under heading 7505. This distinction affects not only the tariff line but potentially the applicable trade-remedy exposure, so importers receiving semi-finished forms should confirm the processing state with the foreign supplier before filing entry.
